Description A travelogue detailing two separate missions for Rupert Mould. The first is his collaboration with the biggest names in Cuban music for a two CD release by Ninja Tune. The second strand is a personal mission to become closer to the great Cuban revolutionaries Ernesto Che Guevara and Jose Marti.
Che Guevara, especially after his death, was and probably still is, one of the world's most famous revolutionaries, with posters of him being sold widely in the west. In 1958 Guevara set up a radio station, Radio Rebelde which broadcast not only his speeches and principles of the revolution, but more importantly, it also broadcast music -- Socialismo con pachanga (socialism with rhythm). October 1997 was the thirtieth anniversary of the death of Che Guevara and together with the band Up, Bustle and Out, the author released an extended-play single in memory of Guevara and his radio station. Distribution was worldwide and press reaction was positive with the Guardian running a full-length feature on Guevara and his life, including a small paragraph about the music project. Radio Rebelde, or Rebel Radio, is still broadcasting today, and the book tells the story of both the radio station and the music project. The CD-ROM complements the story with films and wonderful rhythmic Latin music.
